AI ON MY MIND
Happy Monday!
I had a consulting call last today with someone who wanted to create AI agents and deploy them in their Ecom agency.
He is smart because most agency owners are treating AI like it's just another "tool"...
Like Canva or ClickFunnels...And that's a MASSIVE mistake.
Because while everyone else is playing with "tools"...The smart players are building entire AI AGENTS...
Basically their own proprietary AI "workforce"...
That can handle entire marketing processes on autopilot.
Think about it...
What happens when you have AI agents that can:
• Write killer hooks faster than any human
• Generate scroll-stopping visuals
• Run split tests automatically
• Optimize campaigns in real-time
• Even handle client communication
And the best part? These aren't some generic ChatGPT responses...
These are YOUR agents...
Trained on YOUR best work...
YOUR voice...
YOUR processes...
YOUR secret sauce.
It's like cloning your best employees...
But they work 24/7...
Never complain...
And get smarter every single day.
Now when clients come at you with the "Why do I need you?" question...
You can hit 'em with:
"Because we have proprietary AI systems no one else has access to..."
Boom. Instant differentiation.
And while other agencies are scrambling to keep up...
You're scaling without adding headcount...
Taking on more clients...While actually working less.
That's what I call future-proofing.

TODAY’S TOP STORIES
AI & THE VATICAN
Pope Leo XIV focuses on artificial intelligence (AI) as a pivotal issue for humanity.
Why it matters: The Pope's emphasis on AI highlights the need for ethically-driven AI deployment and governance. Addressing AI's ethical framework might influence regulatory progress and guide global standards.
Driving the news:
- Pope Leo XIV calls for ethical considerations in AI development.
- He identifies AI as a pressing global challenge needing immediate attention.
Zoom in:
- The Vatican's focus on ethical AI use mirrors broader global concerns about AI's societal impact.
- "AI should serve humanity, respecting human dignity," said the Pope.
Yes, but: Ethical implementations alone may not bridge the gap without comprehensive technical governance.
Be Smart: The Vatican's stance could steer multinational dialogues on harmonizing AI ethics and safety standards.
The bottom line: Ethics in AI isn't just a tech challenge—it's a human one that requires collective stewardship.
ChatGPT taps into SharePoint
Why it matters: ChatGPT's access to company data through SharePoint could revolutionize productivity by enhancing data analysis capabilities within enterprises.
What we found: The new SharePoint connector for ChatGPT is now in beta for Plus, Pro, and Team users, enabling data-driven insights.
How it works:
- The connector allows seamless integration of ChatGPT with SharePoint, granting it the ability to analyze stored company data.
- This functionality will allow users to extract insights directly from their organizational data repositories.
Yes, but: Data security remains a top concern as companies must weigh privacy risks against productivity benefits.
The bottom line: The enhancement in analyzing capabilities through SharePoint marks a new era in AI-driven data utilization, promising greater efficiency.

http://2.Search Reddit using these queries and analyze:
•Common emotional themes
•Recurring frustrations
•Language patterns
•Intensity of pain points (using comment engagement as a metric)
•Competing solutions mentioned
3.Organize findings into:
•Primary pain points (most mentioned/highest engagement)
•Secondary pain points (moderate mention/engagement)

•Unmet needs (mentioned problems without good solutions)
4.For each pain point, provide:
•Direct user quotes
•Emotional intensity score (1-10)
